Budgeted Hours

The total budgeted hours on the included projects. You can view the total budgeted hours for the overall life of the included projects, or you can view total budgeted hours only for the specified date range (you can specify an individual week or month).

NOTEBudgeted Hours are populated from information available in the new Resource Budgeting area of the Business Case.

Budgeted Hours appear on the Utilization report in any of the following rows:

Budgeted hours are summarized by job role and by individual user in the Utilization report, as follows:Individual User: Budgeted Hours are summarized for each user in the utilization report. These Budgeted Hours are associated with the tasks and issues that the user is assigned to on the included projects. (You can expand the row of the corresponding job role to view a list of users with that job role.)Job Role: Budgeted Hours are summarized by job role in the utilization report.Budgeted Hours appear in a particular job role as a result of any of the following scenarios:

The job role is defined as the primary job role of the user who is assigned to the task or issue where the Budgeted Hours are associated.

The job role of the user assigned the hours is used whether there is no assignment on the task or issue, another user is assigned with no job role assignment, another user is assigned with a different job role, or another team is assigned.

The job role is assigned to the task or issue that has Budgeted Hours associated, and the user assigned to the task or issue does not have a job role defined in the system.

Unallocated Hours: Budgeted Hours are displayed in the utilization report in the Unallocated Hours section when Budgeted Hours are associated with a task or issue and there is no user or role assigned to the task or issue.This section appears only when there are hours on the project that match this description.

The total planned hours on the included projects. You can view the total planned hours for the overall life of the included projects, or you can view total planned hours only for the specified date range (you can specify an individual week or month).

Planned Hours appear on the Utilization report in any of the following rows:

The job role is assigned to the task or issue that has Planned Hours associated, and the user assigned to the task or issue does not have a job role defined in the system.

Unallocated Hours: Planned Hours are displayed in the utilization report in the Unallocated Hours section when Planned Hours are associated with a task or issue and there is no user or role assigned to the task or issue.This section appears only when there are hours on the project that match this description.

The total actual hours on the included projects. You can view the total actual hours for the overall life of the included projects, or you can view the total actual hours only for the specified date range (you can specify an individual week or month).

Actual Hours appear on the utilization report in any of the following rows:

Actual Hours are summarized by job role and by individual user in the utilization report, as follows:Individual User: Actual Hours are displayed in the utilization report in the row of the user who logged the hours. (You can expand the row of the corresponding job role to view a list of users with that job role who have logged hours.)Job Role: Actual Hours logged by users are summarized in the utilization report in the row of the corresponding job role.Actual Hours appear in a particular job role as a result of any of the following scenarios:

The job role is defined as the primary job role of the user who logged the hours.

The job role of the user logging the hours is used whether there is no assignment on the task or issue, another user is assigned with no job role assignment, another user is assigned with a different job role, or another team is assigned.

The job role is assigned to the task or issue where hours are logged, and the user logging hours does not have a job role defined in the system.

Other Hours: Actual Hours are displayed in the utilization report in the Other Hours section, in the row of the user who logged in the hours. Hours appear in this section when the user who logged the hours does not have a job role defined in the system. This section appears only when there are hours on the project that match this description.

Budgeted Variance (for Hours)

The total budgeted hours minus the total actual hours on the included projects. You can view the total budgeted variance for the overall life of the included projects, or you can view the total budgeted variance only for the specified date range (you can specify an individual week or month).

If the value is positive, it is displayed in green. This indicates that the total budgeted hours are greater than the actual hours.

If the value is negative, it is displayed in red. This indicates that the total budgeted hours are less than the actual hours.

Planned Variance (for Hours)

The total planned hours minus the total actual hours on the included projects. You can view the total planned variance for the overall life of the included projects, or you can view the total planned variance only for the specified date range (you can specify an individual week or month).

If the value is positive, it is displayed in green. This indicates that the total planned hours are greater than the actual hours.

If the value is negative, it is displayed in red. This indicates that the total planned hours are less than the actual hours.

Tracking Cost

You can track cost by viewing how the Budgeted Cost and Planned Cost compares to the Actual Costs.

When tracking the cost of a project, program, or portfolio, information in the Utilization report comes from tasks. Cost information from tasks is always available on the Utilization report. Cost for tasks is calculated based on the cost type of the task. For information about the cost type of tasks, see "Modifying Cost Types of Individual Tasks" in "Tracking Costs."

You can display cost information on the Utilization report in the following ways:

For a given week or month, or for the overall project, program, or portfolio.

The following information is available in the Utilization report when tracking Cost:

Column Title When Viewing Cost

Function

Budgeted Cost

The total Budgeted Cost on the included projects. You can view the total Budgeted Cost for the overall life of the included projects, or you can view the total Budgeted Cost only for the specified date range (you can specify an individual week or month).

Because the Budgeted Cost in the Utilization Report is focused on cost by role, the calculation is the same as the Budgeted Labor Cost within other areas of Workfront. For information about how Budgeted Labor Cost is calculated, see "Calculating Budgeted Labor Cost."

Planned Cost

The total Planned Cost on the included projects. You can view the total Planned Cost for the overall life of the included projects, or you can view the total Planned Cost only for the specified date range (you can specify an individual week or month).

The total Actual Cost on the included projects. You can view the total Actual Cost for the overall life of the included projects, or you can view the total Actual Cost only for the specified date range (you can specify an individual week or month).

The total Budgeted Cost minus the total Actual Cost on the included projects. You can view the total budgeted variance for the overall life of the included projects, or you can view the total budgeted variance only for the specified date range (you can specify an individual week or month).

If the value is positive, it is displayed in green. This indicates that the total Budgeted Cost is greater than the Actual Cost.

If the value is negative, it is displayed in red. This indicates that the total Budgeted Cost is less than the Actual Cost.

Planned Variance (for Cost)

The total Planned Cost minus the total Actual Cost on the included projects. You can view the total planned variance for the overall life of the included projects, or you can view the total planned variance only for the specified date range (you can specify an individual week or month).

If the value is positive, it is displayed in green. This indicates that the total Planned Cost is greater than the Actual Cost.

If the value is negative, it is displayed in red. This indicates that the total Planned Cost is less than the Actual Cost.

Tracking Revenue

You can track revenue by viewing how the budgeted and planned revenue compare to the actual revenue.

When tracking the revenue of a project, program, or portfolio, revenue only from tasks is included in the Utilization report.

The following information is available in the Utilization report when tracking Revenue:

Column Title When Viewing Revenue

Function

Budgeted Revenue

The total Budgeted Hours multiplied by the Role Billing Rate on the included projects. You can view the total budgeted revenue for the overall life of the included projects, or you can view the total budgeted revenue only for the specified date range (you can specify an individual week or month).

Unlike in other areas of Workfront, the Utilization report calculates Planned Revenue by dividing Fixed Revenue evenly by the number of Planned Hours on the task. For example, a task has a revenue of $200. If there are 4 Planned Hours on the task, each hour would be $50. This is distributed on a user and role level. This distribution is unique to the Utilization report.

NOTE If you have a Fixed Revenue task and there are no hours (Planned or Actual), it does not display correctly in the Utilization Report because there is no way to distribute hours.

Role Hourly Plus Fixed: The revenue on the task is calculated using the billing rate set for a specific role, multiplied by the number of Planned Hours. In addition, a fixed amount that is specified on the task is added to the role rate. (For more information, see "Understanding Revenue Types" in "Understanding Billing and Revenue.")

Unlike in other areas of Workfront, the Utilization report calculates Planned Revenue by dividing Fixed Revenue evenly by the number of Planned Hours on the task.

Unlike in other areas of Workfront, if the Planned Revenue exceeds the cap, the remainder is calculated as if it were Fixed Revenue, and Planned Revenue is calculated by dividing Fixed Revenue evenly by the number of hours logged on the task.

Unlike in other areas of Workfront, if the Planned Revenue exceeds the cap, the remainder is calculated as if it were Fixed Revenue, and Planned Revenue is calculated by dividing Fixed Revenue evenly by the number of hours logged on the task.

Role Hourly Plus Fixed: The billing rate set for a specific role, multiplied by the number of hours logged against the task from a user with that role. In addition, a fixed amount that is specified on the task is added to the role rate. (For more information, see "Understanding Revenue Types" in "Understanding Billing and Revenue.")

Unlike in other areas of Workfront, the Utilization report calculates Actual Revenue by dividing Fixed Revenue evenly by the number of hours logged on the task.

NOTE If you have a Fixed Revenue task and there are no hours (Planned or Actual), it does not display correctly in the Utilization Report because there is no way to distribute hours.

Unlike in other areas of Workfront, if the Actual Revenue exceeds the cap, the remainder is calculated as if it were Fixed Revenue, and Actual Revenue is calculated by dividing Fixed Revenue evenly by the number of hours logged on the task.

NOTE If you have a Fixed Revenue task and there are no hours (Planned or Actual), it does not display correctly in the Utilization Report because there is no way to distribute hours.

NOTE If you have a Fixed Revenue task and there are no hours (Planned or Actual), it does not display correctly in the Utilization Report because there is no way to distribute hours.

Budgeted Variance (for Revenue)

The total Actual Revenue minus Budgeted Revenue on the included projects.You can view the total budgeted variance for the overall life of the included projects, or you can view the total budgeted variance only for the specified date range (you can specify an individual week or month).

If the value is positive, it is displayed in green. This indicates that the total Budgeted Cost is greater than the Actual Cost.

If the value is negative, it is displayed in red. This indicates that the total Budgeted Cost is less than the Actual Cost.

Planned Variance (for Revenue)

The total Actual Revenue minus the total Planned Revenue on the included projects.You can view the total planned variance for the overall life of the included projects, or you can view the total planned variance only for the specified date range (you can specify an individual week or month).

If the value is positive, it is displayed in green. This indicates that the total Planned Cost is greater than the Actual Cost.

If the value is negative, it is displayed in red. This indicates that the total Planned Cost is less than the Actual Cost.

Comparing Revenue against Planned and Actual Costs

You can view the Planned or Actual Cost alongside the Planned Revenue. The Margin (%) is also displayed (margin is calculated as Revenue - Cost / Revenue).

The following information is available in the Utilization report when comparing Revenue against Planned and Actual Costs:
